re: Props to those dads that put together play sets and all that the day of Christmas

That looks like one of the easier ones. Took me two weeks after work each day to put together the wood one we bought from Academy. Never again. They need to start making those 1980's metal swingsets popular again.

Edit: When we moved, the wife got another one. The box sat on the back patio for three weeks. The previous homeowners paid for a month of the yardman. Since I did not need him I let him know he would be gone at the end of that month. On his last day, he offered to put it together for $200. Best $200 I ever spent, and I bet he never makes that offer to anyone again.
